Okay, here's a warning. From here on out its about to get complicated.
A Forgotten Past- Part 5
Matt sat beside Tai's bed as he waited for Tai to tell him what was wrong. Tai looked at him, his eyes filled with worry and pain. "Kari knows."
"What?! I thought we agreed to tell them both together!" Matt exploded.
"She knew before I told her. She knew she was adopted."
"How?"
"I don't know. She refused to tell me."
"Well, we have to find her now and ask!"
"I realize that, but we don't know how to find her in the Digital World. Once I know where she might be in the Digital World I can take us there, but since I don't know then we're screwed."
"What?"
"Transport doesn't work between different worlds. So, how are we going to find her? We have no clue where in the Digiworld she could be."
"We don't, but TK does." Matt stood up and walked toward the door and peeked out. He saw his brother leaning against the wall across from the room talking to Izzy and Sora. "TK, come in here." The young blond boy looked at his brother and obediently did as he was told. He walked in and found two pairs of eyes focus on him.
"What's up?" He smiled.
"TK, there's something you don't know about yourself," Matt started.
"You and Kari," Tai corrected.
"That's right. But before we can explain anything we need you to find Kari," Matt continued.
"Okay, I'll go right now. I think Izzy has his laptop. I'll use it to get into the Digital World," he agreed as he started to turn around.
"No, that's not what we mean. Sit down," Matt gestured over to the chair he had been sitting in by Tai's bed. TK sat down and glanced between his brother and his ex-leader/ friend/ almost brother.
"What's going on? What do you mean?" TK asked he tried to swallow around the lump forming in his throat.
"You have a power," Matt started.
"Along with many other powers," Tai interjected.
"Yeah," Matt agreed, slightly annoyed. "Well, we need you to use one of them to find Kari."
'Have they flipped?' TK thought.
"What we need you to do is concentrate on Kari, think about her only. Concentrate on finding her," Matt coached. "Close your eyes." TK did as his was told and closed his eyes. "Now think about Kari." TK agreed and began to think about Kari. Although he didn't have trouble forming a picture of the girl he loved in his mind. "Now, where is she?" Matt asked.
'Where is she? How the hell am I supposed to know that?!' TK thought. Suddenly his mind went black. After a few moments the familiar jungle of the Digital World replaced the black. He glanced around and his eyes looked upon two people, kissing. "Kari," TK whispered. "Kari, what are you doing?"
Kari and Ken broke apart. Her eyes were red and puffy, and her cheeks were wet form tears. Ken looked at him with pure hatred in his eyes. "Leave me alone, Takeru!" She yelled as she allowed Ken to put his arm around her waist.
"But-but what's going on?" He asked.
"I've joined Ken now. I-I can't face anyone anymore!" He was about to say something, but she cut him off. "How could you? How could you turn away from me like that? Why Yolie? I hate you Takeru!" She yelled.
TK felt like his heart had just been ripped out of his chest as he stared at the crying girl. He glanced at Ken who had a large smirk on his face. "Why? Why do you hate me? What about Yolie?" He asked. "Why did you join him?"
"Because it was meant to be. He is the child of darkness and I am the child of light. We are meant to be together to create a balance in the Digital World," Kari replied.
"But-" Before he could continue on the world began to fade. He wrenched open his eyes and looked around. He was back in Tai's hospital room. "No, why? Why?" He collapsed, crying, in his hands.
"TK, what happened?" Matt asked.
"Kari- Kari joined him. She hates me, but won't say why. Why?"
"TK," Tai spoke up. "Explain from the beginning. Then we will explain everything to you."
"No need," TK waved him away. "She told me. She was so bitter," he whispered.
"How? How did she know?" Tai yelled. He put his hand on his forehead as he felt a wave of fatigue wash over him. "Ow," groaned.
"Take it easy Tai. Don't forget what happened and that your in the hospital because of it," Matt warned.
"How could I forget?" Tai complained as he rubbed his throbbing head.
"TK, what happened?"
"She- she was kissing Ken, the emperor. She turned to me and told me she had joined him and she hated me. She kept asking why I turned away from her. I didn't know what she was talking about. She said she hated me."
"Why? Why did she join Ken?" Matt asked calmly.
"She said it was meant to be. She said she's the child of light and he was the child of darkness and that they were created to create a balance in the Digiworld."
"Child of darkness?" Matt laughed as he glanced at Tai. "How wrong could she be?"
"This is Ken's doing. He brainwashed her," Tai frowned. "We have to go after her. The three of us and the three of us only."
"Agreed," Matt nodded.
"Wait, you said you would explain everything to me!" TK yelled.
"We did," Matt nodded. "But…"
"But what?"
"Would you rather find out here alone or with Kari once we get her back?"
"Why? What does Kari have to do with me?"
"More then you know, little bro," Matt smiled.
"Fine, let's get Kari and then tell me what the hell is going on!"
"Fine. Tai, connect with TK and take us to where he saw her," Matt said looking over at Tai.
"You finally got to be the leader, huh?" Tai replied as a slight smile appeared on his face. Matt smiled at him and rolled his eyes. "Come'er TK." TK slowly approached Tai, but not enough for Tai to reach out and touch him. Tai laughed as he rolled his eyes. "Its okay, I'm not going to bite. Hard, at least." TK hesitated, only to get a hard shove from his brother. Tai reached out to touch TK's forehead and he closed his eyes. He took a deep breath. 'Where is she? Come on!' he thought.
TK waited as Tai search through his mind for the information he needed. 'Yeah, they've flipped,' he thought answering his own question.
Tai heard his thought and forced himself to suppress a reply. 'Come on,' he screamed to himself. Finally an image hit him. A jungle outside a huge, dark building; Ken's fortress. "Got it," he announced. "It'll take me a minute, but…" He was cut off as the bed disappeared from under him and he hit the ground. "Ow…" he groaned as he rubbed his sore butt. He opened his eyes and glanced around. They, Matt and TK were with him, were in the scene from TK's head. "That ride was shorter then I expected."
"You have more power then you thought," Matt shrugged with a smile. He walked over to his brother who was sitting on the ground with his eyes closed. "TK…" he tried to lift him up by his arm. "TK, get up."
"No," TK refused. "I don't know what the hell just happened, but I have a feeling we're not in the hospital anymore." He opened his eyes and looked at his brother. "Who are you? What are you?"
"Your protector," Matt replied as he pulled TK to his feet.
"Come on, Matt. I'm old enough to take care of myself, I thought you realized that after the battle with Puppetmon," TK yelled as he pulled his arm from Matt's grasp.
"No, Takeru. I am your protector." Matt pulled TK's face inches from his. "That's what I was created for; to keep you safe."
"C-created?"
"Yep. That's my only job. To keep you from evil's grasp until you are ready to face your destiny."
"Ready to face my destiny?" TK repeated.
Tai came up behind Matt and for the first time TK noticed they were both dressed differently. Matt was dressed in a blue shirt and gray pants with black boots. Tai was in a sleeveless red shirt with gray pants and black boots too. They each had a sword tied to their backs. Neither seemed at all surprised by the sudden change. "That's right, TK. Matt's job is to protect you and mine is to protect Kari," Tai answered. Tai glanced over at Matt. "Let's go. I'm not going to fail now."
"That didn't sound the least bit selfish!" Matt laughed as Tai ran ahead. "Come on, TK." Matt took off after Tai and TK reluctantly followed. Tai disappeared through an opening in the trees, and Matt and TK followed. They stopped upon seeing a huge, dark building before them. They stared at it, mouths hanging open.
"Well, this must be it. Ken's fortress," Tai shook his head in awe. "Man, this kid's got it good!"
"Yeah, if you call being alone in the Digital World good," TK shrugged.
"Let's go," Tai raced ahead without thinking as usual.
"That is why they left me in charge," Matt whispered to himself.
"They who?" TK asked.
"No one, TK. You'll find out as soon as we get Kari out. It'll be a snap," Matt smiled as he ran ahead.
"What the hell…" TK muttered as he ran after Matt.
